UPDATED AUG 7, 2018

Netflix has released the trailer to 'Maniac', its new black comedy series starring Academy Award winners Emma Stone and Sally Field, Academy Award-nominee Jonah Hill, and Justin Theroux in prominent roles. Based on a Norwegian television series of the same name by Hakon Bast Mossige and Espen PA Lervaag, the web series is set to premiere on the streaming platform on September 21.

Directed by Cari Joji Fukunaga (Beasts of No Nation), the 2:36 minute trailer to 'Maniac' opens with Theroux's Dr. James K. Mantleray questioning Annie Landsberg (Stone) and Owen Milgrim (Hill), about where they think they are and what they think is wrong with them. "It's not therapy, it's science," Mantleray snaps, as Annie wonders whether what she's going through is a form of therapy.
